That is what I typically do now as well. In fact, for the first time since starting to buy SR's I've actually hit the "$10 Straight Razor" that I've read so much about in the past. I just do a search, place my top bid amount and then try desperately not to look at the ongoing results or spend much time looking at how many Bids I have going... My last bout was 50 bids and I won 5... But, 10% of SR's in my price range is still pretty good.
Definitely cannot say enough about 'Weird Searches'/'Misspellings' like this "Wade And Butcher" search:
Wade And Butcher | eBay
vs a "Wade & Butcher" search:
Wade & Butcher | eBay
Gaming your searches in this way can yield some surprising wins! :D The potential negative being a dent to a CC if you ever hit a 75% success rate on 60 bids! ;)
